- What it is
- Moondream's release post, dated September 22, 2026, for two speech-to-text models based on NVIDIA's Parakeet: Moondream Parakeet Redux and Moondream Parakeet Ultra. It states that both support automatic speech recognition in 25 languages, describes the models as fast and local, and gives the weights' license.
- How much weight it carries
- The maker's own release post, read on 2026-10-20. It is a marketing post with benchmarks the maker ran itself, but the language count and the license line are plain statements. The post names the 25-language count for both models together, not separately.
